Cyberoam unveils logging-reporting solution

BANGALORE, INDIA: Cyberoam iView, the open source logging and reporting solution from Cyberoam is now available in appliance form. The appliance series consists of CR-iVU25, CR-iVU100 and CR-iVU200 catering to the logging-reporting requirements of SMBs and enterprises having up to 200 branch offices.

The Cyberoam iView appliances offer single point logging-reporting of all network devices, delivering a comprehensive view of network activity. With a cost-effective, pre-loaded hardware device that holds terabyte-storage space, these appliances are quick-to-deploy and easy-to-manage. Using RAID technology, these appliances offer redundancy and high levels of storage reliability, ensuring the safety of logs-reports in case of hard disk failure.

Abhilash Sonwane, VP-Product Management, Cyberoam said, “Until recently, SMBs had to struggle with individual logs and reports of multiple devices to view their combined network activity. This significantly slowed down their response time, raising security and data risks, while increasing technical manpower costs. With the Cyberoam-iView appliance launch, we are addressing three critical requirements of SMBs-cost-effectiveness, single-point network visibility and an easy- to-manage solution.”

The launch of the Cyberoam iView appliances comes on heels of the growing SMB-enterprise demands for logging-reporting solutions that offer visibility into user activity across distributed networks, while meeting regulatory compliance requirements.

The market for this segment, popularly known as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is estimated to be worth $1.3 billion, growing annually at over 25 per cent. The Cyberoam iView appliance enables organizations to gain complete visibility into network activity with real-time security and access reports related to top virus attacks, spam recipients, Web users and more, reinforcing organization-wide network security and data confidentiality. The appliance also offers archiving to meet forensic requirements.

Sonwane added, “With Cyberoam iView appliances, our channel partners can look forward to meeting the logging-reporting requirements of customers for a range of network devices that most often include UTM appliances, firewalls and Web proxies. With the involvement of the open-source community, we will continue to add logging-reporting of a growing number of network devices, servers, databases and operating systems to Cyberoam-iView.”
